2007 | Feature film, Full length feature | Director: Ilmar Raag

The drama directed by Ilmar Raag is based on real stories of school bullying, following the process of growing violence culminating with a tragic denouement. The screenplay has been written in collaboration with the participating schoolchildren.

There is no way back any more - he has to go on protecting his friend. As a result, he must confront with the rest of his classmates, even the so-called normal ones.
